How many Z's on CFB Edmonton?

edconline · 03-08-2010, 11:00 PM

Hey,
Just bought my MB 370Z Saturday, wondered how many of the Edmonton owners here are from the base. (I've seen prob 3-4 370 Z's on the base.) Any regular meets for Edmonton owners? What a sweet car!

wheee! · 03-09-2010, 09:08 AM

Welcome to the club! Snakes and I are at the Strats. His is Graphite and mine is Black Rose. Jules works at HQ & Sigs and has a black coupe. You make 4 for now! Where are you posted?

Snakes709 · 03-09-2010, 10:31 AM

I still never seen any 370z...my Crew Commander owns a black 350z roadster though. Hope to see you guys on the base sometime. And Wheee i finally got to see the black rose at the dealership when i was dropping used oil off. Looks nice, kinda how my cobalt was...turns different color depending on the light.

I'm at 3 PPCLI, first 370 at the battalion

Wasn't expecting to get it this soon, but they convinced me down at ericksen nissan lol. Also, I was too impatient to wait for an order (wanted the persimmon leather instead of black), this one on the lot had sport package and navi so figured i could live with black leather. Thanks for the welcome, look forward to a meet sometime!

BTW, I saw a white 370z on 97th last night and again this morning at Clareview station.... not a member here as far as I know.....

Snakes709 · 03-09-2010, 01:26 PM

Thats where i got my car from. Who was your sales person? George is a good guy and got me a awesome trade in value on my Cobalt. Is your 370z the roadster that was on the little ledge?

Whee are you down in maintance the next few days? I'm working on the Coyote's that we just brought back from the olympics. I'll be working on them until my Leo C2 Gunners course starts, which is sometime this week.

Yup, here most of the time, ext 3176. Will be out most of Thursday though....

Chris was my sales guy, what sealed the deal is they brought a Genesis Coupe to the dealership for me to test drive right after the 370, had to get that outta the way before I committed. Mine is a black coupe. (Not a big fan of the roadster)

Snakes - Where did you get the Gen 3 Stillen intakes, online? Also did you install yourself or have a shop do it? Looking to do that and the exhaust in the next few months.

Snakes709 · 03-09-2010, 07:19 PM

I got my intakes from the ericksens dealership, they took $100 off the price cuz i bought the car 6 days prior..lol. And i did the install myself...took about an hour and a half. Dealership wanted to charge me $465 to install them. If you want i can do the install of your intakes and exhaust for a low price of only a rum and coke :P

edconline · 03-09-2010, 08:58 PM

465?! wow that's insane, i think i may just take you up on that! for the intakes and exhaust I'm sure we can arrange more than one rum and coke lol

I think my first addition is gonna have to be splash guards though, my new baby is getting so dirty with all the sand on the roads here

Snakes709 · 03-09-2010, 10:07 PM

lol. splash gaurds will not stop your car from getting dirty. I moved from Halifax to here and what a difference. Back in halifax i could go 2-3 weeks without cleaning my car. Here my car is clean for a hour or two once i clean it...doesnt matter if its summer or winter. But yea, i dont mind doing the install for you if you want. Now i know what im doing it will take shorter to do the intakes. I installed a header, downpipe and a catback exhaust on my old car within a few hours. So a catback exhaust should take 30mins - 1hr to do.

Jules · 03-10-2010, 07:39 AM

Yeah we should do something for sure !

I know that in the summer there is often meet at the united cycle not far from white av on friday nights.

wheee! · 03-10-2010, 10:53 AM

I agree on the splash guards. I have 3M clear bra around the wheel wells and it does a good job of protecting the paint there.

Hey Jules, talk to Snakes and see if you can get him to help you with the intake and Gemini exhaust here on the base! Save you a trip to the dealer....

Plus I am really considering ordering the Gemini exhaust and ERZ HFC's myself...

Snakes709 · 03-16-2010, 06:31 PM

Whos black 370z did i see coming off the base today at lunch time? Any idea's what that accident was about? I heard something about a car catching on fire.

Jules · 03-16-2010, 08:49 PM

I test drove the 370 at lunch time and then timmy so it was probably me but I did not catch on fire lol.
